This is not the board for selling a boat.  Go to the flea market. 

Trying to upload my boat on here using the attachments option on here and it wont let me...anyone have any ideas??

I had the pic issue with one of my host sites.  When I contacted Glenn he said that site had been banned.  Maybe yours is too.

No I dont want to sell my boat...I just wanted to show everyone my first boat and I have the pics on my computer and I try to upload em on here and it doesnt work!

Download the free version of Photobucket. 

Upload photos to your page on Photobucket.

Place the curser on the picture on Photobucket, you will find four lines open beneath.  Left click on the one that says IMG code.  That will highlight that line.  Right click on the highlighted line, then click on copy.

To put it in a post, all you need to do is put the blinking vertical line where you want the picture to be placed, then right click.  A box will appear with several options.  Click on copy, and the image code will be placed in your post.

You can click on preview post to view your post as it will appear.  If it's satisfactory, click on post.

Thanks Rhino!!

You can also click on the "Insert Image" button at the top of the post box.  You can place the "link" to your photo between the brackets.

There are times you may have to do this if you are copying a photo from the 'net, and do not want to upload it onto your Photobucket page.

I may be wrong, but I think photos have to be JPG to show up.

Using Photobucket for your photos simplifies it a bit.

Good information Rhino. I will try your suggestions. I can e-mail pictures but just can not figure out how to put them in a post. Thank you.

You don't need to "download" PHOTOBUCKET. Just go to their site, join, and put your photos on your page on their site.

I stand corrected.  It's been a while since I joined.  Shows to go you just how computer literate I are. 

Ok, I took some pictures with my Kodak EasyShare 713 camera then loaded them on to Kodak EasyShare software, then moved them to Photobucket. I used Photobucket and I was able to move a picture to a post to be included with my message but the whole thing, picture and post, was too large. You would of have to use the side and bottom slider bars to move the post from left to right and up and down. It seems I need to shrink the whole post to view it properly. Where do I start? Need help.

On Photobucket you can re-size the pics ..... should be an edit button with each pic .... resize them to large .....

I must be doing something wrong. I used "large" and the other four settings, 15" screen, Med., Small, and Tiny, and did not help. When I transfered them over they were still to big. "HELP".
